Initializing the Battery Pack
You need to initialize a new battery pack before using it for the first time or when
the actual operating time of a battery pack is much less than expected. Initializing
is the process of fully charging, discharging, and then charging. It can take several
hours.
The G-Manager program provides a tool called “Battery Recalibration” for the
purpose.
Checking the Battery Level
NOTE: Any battery level indication is an estimated result. The actual operating
time can be different from the estimated time, depending on how you are using the
Tablet PC.
The operating time of a fully charged battery pack depends on how you are using
the Tablet PC. When your applications often access peripherals, you will
experience a shorter operating time.
By Operating System
You can check the approximate battery level using the battery meter function of the
operating system. To read the battery level in Windows, tap the battery icon on the
taskbar.
By Gas Gauge
On the exterior side of the battery pack is a gas gauge for displaying the estimated
battery charge. When the battery pack is not installed in the Tablet PC and you
want to know the battery charge, you can press the switch to see the number of
LEDs that light up. Each LED represents 20% charge.
